An update

For those of you who aren't on Facebook, here's the latest:

Contractions started getting farther apart this morning after I went back to bed, but have continued throughout the day---very irregularly. Just lately have I noticed they seem to be getting closer together again. We'll start timing them after the kids go down to see where we are. I do think all the things I've experienced today are part of latent labor, and that they will lead to active labor at some point. It doesn't seem like it's going to fizzle out altogether.

I'm used to these long, gradual labors. Wouldn't know what to do with a fast one...
